Destiny can be in the stars – or a sunset.
I rent out a 4-bed house by the beach in Margate. It normally rents fast, but strangely, I lost the list of callers from the first week’s ads... then Ted said I should show off the house when the tide’s in for best views, but a nice lady couldn’t come at that time so rented elsewhere. Then a lady phoned, desperate for a house that day, but my battery died! :-(
I wondered what was happening, until...
It was a warm, colourful evening as I walked along the promenade towards the house.
“Stunning sunset, huh?” I said to a lady.
“Yes,” she smiled, not looking at me.
Hmm, she’s meditating on the glowing red sky and yellow sea. “Yes,” I repeated. “Stunning. That’s why I bought houses here.” I pointed just behind her. She didn’t even look, just continued to meditate. I joined in. Stunning sunsets are worth taking time out.
As the last ember sizzled into the sea, she turned to me. “You have a house here?”
“Yes, I rent it out.”
“Wow! I’m looking to rent now!”
The next day she viewed it with her friend. Sun rays streamed from the garden through patio doors, into the dining room and open kitchen. They looked at each other in glee. “Perfect,” they both said in unison. “We’ll take it. We’re from Latvia, and hope to live here for 10 years!”
“Perfect for me,” I said. “I want to travel to other countries, teaching healing therapies and Angels on Earth.”
They looked at each other in glee again. “That’s perfect too! We teach meditation, healing and spirituality in Latvia. And India! We’ll rent your house, and you can teach our students in Latvia!”
Perfect destiny was in that sunset...
